A 48-year-old Baltimore man died after he was struck by a car in Linthicum Wednesday afternoon.

Anne Arundel police said Thomas Anthony Flayhart, a tow truck driver for Generations Auto "Safetow," was standing behind his truck as he was preparing to tow a disabled vehicle on Belle Grove Road when a car driven by Brian Wayne Weatherley, 31, of Baltimore hit him and the truck from behind.

Flayhart was taken to the University of Maryland Shock Trauma Center where he ultimately died of his injuries, police said.

Weatherley was taken to Harbor Hospital to be treated for minor injuries, police said.

Investigators said Weatherley was believed to be inebriated at the time of the crash and failed to slow down to avoid the crash.

The police department's Traffic Safety Section is handling the investigation and charges against Weatherley are pending a review by the Anne Arundel County State's Attorney's Office.
